This error message occurs when trying to combine a dictionary with a non-Series data type in a Pandas operation. In Pandas, columns and indexes are stored as Series or Index objects, while dictionaries have no inherent order. Thus, when a dictionary is mixed with non-Series data, there is uncertainty about how the resulting structure should be ordered. A common solution is to convert the dictionary to a Series or DataFrame before combining it with other data types.
